Beijing Holiday

"I Believe I Can Fly" ~ Yeah ! As promises, we going to share with all of you about holiday in China that one of us have went to as our 1st entry :') .  Well FYI, one of our group member which is MASFAZILLA has worked at Travel Agency before this namely TM Tours & Travel (free publicity......hopefully got commission) LOL.  So, she has gone to various places and we decided to write an entry about BEIJING !!  Are you ready ? 'To Infinity and Beyond !' hahahahahaha :p  The story goes .......

Standing in front of Tienanmen Square

I considered this as a BIG present from my ex-employer. I was very happy she believe in me and give an opportunity to lead a group of 39 people! *shaking plus excited* hee... but at the same time, I was afraid to hold this responsibility because this is my FIRST TIME EVERRRR to go outside from Malaysia.. Luckily, I have very supportive colleague that convinced me to be the TOUR LEADER and Tadaaa!! Officially I becoming like one of them and I promise to do my best for this trip. (perghh! *sweet talking...*)  My trip was on 17 Dec until 22 Dec 2008 and I flew with the winner of World Travel Awards 2011, our FIRST CLASS carrier; Malaysia Airlines ! (wow ! free publicity again ? ) :') 

"Welcome to Beijing. The weather report this morning predicted 0'Celsius today and -4'Celsius at night." said smiling Azmi, My Superb Tour Guide at China ! =)

My Group Members in front of  Forbidden City ! (my favorite place)

On the 1st day, we go straight to Forbidden City .  I've been informed by the tour guide that it was the previous castle that been used by the China Emperor during Ming Dynasty to the end of Qing Dynasty .  There are many historic stories behind this beautiful castle and most interestingly, most box office movies related to the place were being done here ! *hysteria* (I wish I could meet all the actors) LOL . 

Mr. Azmi was giving commentary to our group about Forbidden City and Tienanmen Square . :')

At Large Stone Carving; ramps flanked by stairs that symbolized Emperor greatness . The emperor would be carried in his sedan over the stone carving and was the ONLY person allowed to pass over it . Interesting isn't ? :')

The Acrobatic Show  O.o

Mind Blowing !! I was standing at one of the 7 WONDERS IN THE WORLD; THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA !

This part of the trip was the BEST part EVERRRR because it was my dream to see with my own eyes of how the Great Wall looks like. :') *overwhelmed* I was startled at first but it only last for few seconds . hahaha ... I was impressed and just cannot imagine HOWWW those past people build this wall WITHOUT any modern equipment . *hurm......wondering* 

The Summer Palace; Mr. Azmi told me that this palace was used by the past Emperor during summer season .  That's how it got its name . Obviously ! heee ....

Freeeeeeeeezing !!! (gggrrrr !!)  I was in front of Bird Nest Stadium .

The "Bird Nest Stadium" is the national pride stadium for China at 2008 whereby the Olympic Games was been held here and the opening ceremony as well .  It symbolized "The Healthiness of People" because the Chinese loves to drink 'Bird Nest Soup' and they believe it is good for their health so they built a stadium that looks like a 'Bird Nest' to show the sincerity towards their community .
